Student housing continues to expand as a building type in the city. In this gallery there are examples housing in Roebuck Student housing Belfield. The current gallery shows examples of the digihub student housing off Thomas street also. Designed by O’Mahony Pike and built by Bennett construction the project looks like a prototype for much of the new student accommodation in the city. New projects are being built on Dorset street ( H.J. Lyons Architects) and there are huge developments in the Blackpitts / Tenters area of the city. A welcome factor is that many of the projects are being developed on sites that lay idle for many years. The Dublin Inquirer provide this assessment of the new landscape of student housing.
